TIPS

Here are the valuable tips for Greek Chicken & Tzatziki Bowl: 

  • Juicier Chicken: Marinate the chicken in lemon juice, garlic, and olive oil for enhanced flavour.
  • Perfectly Cooked Rice: Let the brown rice sit covered for 5 minutes before fluffing.
  • Extra Crunch: Add diced cucumber or sliced cherry tomatoes for freshness.
  • Lighter Dressing: Mix tzatziki with a little water or lemon juice for a thinner consistency.
  • Meal-Prep Friendly: Store ingredients separately and assemble just before serving to maintain freshness.

VARIATIONS

  • High-Protein Option: Add a hard-boiled egg or extra grilled chicken.
  • Low-Carb Version: Swap brown rice for cauliflower rice or chopped romaine lettuce.
  • Spicy Twist: Sprinkle red pepper flakes or add a drizzle of hot sauce.
  • Nutty Flavour: Toss in toasted almonds or pine nuts for added crunch.
  • Creamier Texture: Mash the feta into the tzatziki sauce for a richer consistency.
  • Extra Veggies: Mix in roasted red peppers, olives, or artichokes for a Mediterranean boost.

PREPPING AND STORAGE

  • Refrigeration: Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Keep tzatziki separate until ready to serve.
  • Freezing: Freeze cooked brown rice and grilled chicken separately for up to 1 month. Avoid freezing feta and tzatziki as they change texture.
  • Reheating: Warm rice and chicken in the microwave for 1-2 minutes before serving.
  • Meal Prep Tip: Pre-portion ingredients into containers for quick, easy meals throughout the week.
